[Asia Economy Reporter Park Cheol-eung] The Justice Party has proposed a public debate on youth policies to the Liberty Korea Party.

Kim Dong-gyun, deputy spokesperson of the Justice Party, said in a statement on the 10th, "The Liberty Korea Party criticized our party's youth basic income pledge of 30 million won by mentioning Representative Sim Sang-jung. It is truly regrettable that they reflexively criticize like Pavlov's dog without properly considering the Justice Party's deep concerns for the future of the Republic of Korea."

He continued, "Does the Liberty Korea Party have any measures to alleviate the severe suffering of the youth generation who will bear the future of Korea? Leader Hwang Kyo-ahn is so obsessed with the presidential race that he pays no attention to people's livelihood, focusing only on merging and splitting the party, turning it into a mess. I hope they at least present something properly before criticizing."

Deputy spokesperson Kim also criticized, "As a party covered with gold spoons through overseas childbirth, military service exemptions, and studying abroad, it is natural that they cannot see the pain young people are currently experiencing. Does the Liberty Korea Party want to see young people suffer and despair amid generational and class inequalities, only to be forever pushed to the margins of our society?"

He then said, "If the Justice Party's youth measures are so unsatisfactory, why not bring out the Liberty Korea Party's plan and hold a public debate? We can discuss the validity of the measures and the realism of securing funding anytime, so we hope for a response." Deputy spokesperson Kim added, "Also, if there is a magic wand that can make anything happen, for the future of Korea, I would rather hope that the Liberty Korea Party does not find it than wish for its disappearance."
